In clear terms, accent gives everyone away. Although some people have the gift and the ability to change how they talk flawlessly to adapt to the host community or environment, I do not have such a gift. Accents are inherent and primarily affected by where one grows up. Merriam Webster dictionary defines accent as "a distinctive manner of expression: such a way of speaking typical of a particular group of people and especially of the natives or residents of a region." So, it then means that it has nothing to do with intellect, wisdom and makes some superhuman or less.

In other words, one should expect various accents from place to place, country to country, tribe to tribe, as it is just another tongue that is different and peculiar to people. And so, next time we meet people who talk in another way than us, let us keep in mind that the way they sound unique and different is the same way we sound foreign to them. Therefore, we need to accept one another's uniqueness and let that not make us fear, suspect, or misjudge ourselves because it is just another tongue.

In 1985, 36 years ago, a group of musicians in the U.S. came together to produce a single album called the U.S.A. for Africa "We are the World." The seven-minute video shook the World as it suddenly became famous and went viral using today's language. However, that is not the critical thing and lesson to learn fast forward to 2021. My goal in the Global Perspective Podcast initiative is to relate the principle behind "We are the world" and encourage people to reset civil engagements and conversations in a way that will move humanity forward and peace to be the center of our political discussion.

Today, 20 years ago, America came under heavy attack by some extremists with the parochial, unholy, and dangerous belief system that killing others is the way to please their maker. It has been a long 20 years after, and it is a blessing to be alive today. I stand with millions of fellow Americans to honor the memory of those who lost their lives directly or indirectly due to 9/11. America is still in the healing process. In this episode of the Global Perspective podcast, I will be talking about how we can continue to heal.

My goal on the podcast is to lend my voice to lower the high temperature of social-political ideologies that have assumed extreme dimensions where extremism seems to gain followers. Moderate voices appear weak and insignificant to the extent that good people take back seats and withdraw their voices from global issues because moderation seems unprofitable. We need to bring civility, decency, and thoughtfulness back to civil discussions and conversations. This episode explains how much our words matter.

 The goal is to lower the high temperature of social-political ideologies that have assumed extreme dimensions where extremism seems to gain followers and moderate voices appear weak. As a result, good people take back seats and withdraw their voices, and it must stop. Instead, we need to bring civility, decency, and thoughtfulness back to civil discussions and conversations.

Also, people of we would like to hear from people who have rich and diverse backgrounds. Rich and varied experiences help individuals to bring a broader perspective into play in one's worldview.
